Christ = Wisdom, Righteousness, Sanctification & Redemption

"Ye are not your own; ye are bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are Gods." "Whether ye eat or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God." (1 Cor.6:19/10:31
 

If these rules were observed, there would not be that constant strain after the things of the world that makes life a burden in its intensity; but in its place would be the rest and peace that comes of seeking first the "kingdom of God, and his righteousness."

Many professed Christians seem to think that no effort on their part is needed in order to insure growth in grace, and as a consequence they are indolent and listless in spiritual things.

But they are entertaining a mistaken view.
They are called upon to be a peculiar people, a holy nation, a royal priesthood. God has opened to them the treasures of His word. Christ is to be made unto them
wisdom and righteousness,
sanctification and redemption;
and He would have them communicate the rich treasures of His grace to the world."
